I come bearing good news to all you who wanted Astral to make it to the App Store, because one year, ten months, and fifteen days later, after much push from me to continue development of the game, it has finally been submitted by Ludonauts!! I have personally been playing the crap out of it with my special preview build, and it's amazing. It even has bigger explosions now! Unfortunately, there are no leaderboards, but they are coming in an update! Take another look at the vid and look ahead to release! http://www.ludonauts.com/ Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel
looks like its got some great game play.....i like it when people focus on getting nice gameplay and not concentrate so much on graphics.... when'd du yu think it'd be out?? paid or free??
A big thank you to doodlejumper--if he hadn't messaged me some time ago, I never would have come around and released the game. So yup, it's been submitted to the App Store, and should hopefully arrive by next weekend. It'll be $.99, and I'll be updating it next month with leaderboards using GameCenter and OpenFeint! In the meantime, here are some hi-res screenshots of it running on a Retina display:
